The main idea about Wallarm is to get inner knowledge of how the application works and how users use it. Based on this data, we craft dynamic rules for every single applications or API.

The simplest example is what data transmitted in different parameters of the form field or API calls. For example, it's OK if someone put an SQL Injection payload at Stack-overflow site in the form writing a security-related article. It can be a normal behavior. Meanwhile, SQL injection payload is probably a malicious thing for a login form at your bank website.

We wouldn't ban request only if it is sent with curl. There is a set of different factors and statistics that are taken into the account. E.g. if you run this requests too quickly and it is sent with curl, it can be considered as a malicious activity.

So I can CSRF the bank site with a SQLi in the login form, and ban anybody who clicks my link?
